New Yorkers were outraged to discover
last month that a 15-year-old girl who was raped by a social worker
inside a courthouse got a stiffer sentence for lying to police than the
social worker got for rape.

Now, a Manhattan judge says she plans to reject the plea deal struck
between prosecutors and Tony "Tyson" Simmons, a juvenile counselor who
pleaded guilty to sexually assaulting three underage girls. Tyson's
guilty plea had garnered him 10 years of probation and no prison time.
